It´s
official: Oslo is the most expensive city in the world, according to a
study published by Swiss bank UBS last Friday. The study calculates the
cost of living in 72 cities worldwide by comparing the prices of 122
goods and services. Whi
le Zurich and
Tokyo occupy rank 2 and rank 3 respectively, the steepest rise in prices
has been attested to New York, Hong Kong and Dubai. Athens and Dublin
saw a noticeable fall in prices due to the Euro zone crisis, but Seoul
and other cities in emerging economies climbed far up the ladder.
Despite being the most expensive city in the world, Oslo only ranks 4th in terms of purchasing power – the top places here are occupied by two Swiss cities, Zurich and Geneva.
A Big Mac was used to identify the purchasing power in the 72 cities: While the average employee in Zurich can afford to buy a Big Mac after only 13 minutes of work, it takes 84 minutes of work to be able to buy the same burger in Nairobi.
Have you experienced a rise or fall in the cost of living in your city in the past years?
